TREATMENT
What are the active ingredients?
Cezanne’s Tri-Fusion Smoothing Technology is a blend composed of vegan glyoxylic acid, hydrolyzed keratin, and vegan hydrolyzed quinoa seed working together to elongate curl, smooth the cuticle, and reduce frizz.
Will I see similar results from Cezanne when compared to formaldehyde-based keratin smoothing products?
Yes, Cezanne is easier, faster, safer, and gives very similar results to formaldehyde-based formulas without the formaldehyde-related eye and respiratory irritations. Although some stylists will continue to use formaldehyde-based formulas, increasing numbers of stylists and their clients are requesting an alternative to this toxic ingredient. Stylists also like the distinct advantages including:
- Ability to color hair the same day before or after Cezanne treatment.
- Hair still holds a curl after treatment.
- No waiting period, meaning the client can work out, swim, wash their hair, use pins, and wear hair ties immediately after the treatment.
Does Cezanne damage the hair with repeated use, like formaldehyde-based keratin treatments?
No, Cezanne makes hair stronger, healthier, and improves texture with repeated use.
How long will Cezanne treatments last?
Classic and Classic Blonde can last up to 5 months and Express and Express Blonde can last up to 10 weeks. Longevity will vary based on hair type, texture, maintenance, routine, and lifestyle.
Where can I get a treatment/I need to find a salon that offers Cezanne?
Please visit the salon locator for the nearest salon.
Do you have an “at-home“ treatment I can do myself?
Unfortunately, Cezanne does not have an "at-home" treatment. Please visit the salon locator for the nearest salon.
When can I color my hair?
Cezanne recommends professional hair color done in a salon by a licensed cosmetologist. Please consult with your stylist. Color can be done before or after the Cezanne treatment depending on what your stylist recommends for your specific hair needs and services being done.
Are Cezanne Keratin Smoothing Treatments safe for pregnant/breastfeeding women or children?
Although Cezanne contains no formaldehyde, carcinogens, or dangerous chemicals, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding and elect to use the product or if you elect to use it on children, check with your physician for a professional recommendation first.
How long do I have to wait to wash my hair after a treatment?
Unlike most smoothing treatments, there is NO wait time with Cezanne Keratin Smoothing treatments and the hair can be washed immediately. There are no restrictions on working out, wearing ponytails or clips, or using styling products. Return to your normal hair routine and have the best hair day, every day!
My hair smells bad after the treatment? What is it from and what should I do?
The lingering scent is a natural byproduct of keratin and may be present after first shampoo and last three to four shampoos only when hair is wet. If scent is excessive and is lasting longer than five shampoos, please consult with the stylist so they can address the issue on sight.
What botanical extracts does Cezanne contain?
Cezanne contains argan oil, tocopherol, olive fruit oil, aloe vera leaf juice, sugar cane, apple and green tea extracts, and meadowfoamate.
Will Cezanne make my hair straight?
No, after the first wash your hair will return to its original texture. If your hair is curly, curls will soften and elongate the curl.
Can Cezanne treatments be used with Henna?
No, Cezanne does not recommend using Cezanne in conjunction with Henna. If someone chooses to use henna, we cannot guarantee the service or the results.
Does Cezanne contain gluten?
Although Cezanne products do not contain gluten-based ingredients, we cannot certify they are completely free from gluten contact during the production process.
Aftercare
How soon can I wash my hair, work out and wear ponytails or clips?
Unlike most smoothing treatments, you can wash your hair, work out, wear ponytails or clips, and use styling products immediately after getting a Cezanne treatment.
Can I curl my hair after Cezanne?
Yes, although Cezanne delivers similar results as formaldehyde-based smoothing treatments, it does not make your hair flat and allows you to curl and add volume.
Can I swim in the ocean or a chlorine pool after my Cezanne Treatment?
Yes, you can swim immediately after the Cezanne treatment but chlorine and salt water can dry the hair. Apply Perfect Moisture Conditioner before swimming and rinse with warm water immediately after getting out.
What aftercare should I use after the treatment?
Cezanne aftercare is highly recommended. The Perfect Moisture Shampoo and Conditioner and Ultimate Blonde Shampoo and Conditioner are specially formulated to maintain the Cezanne treatment for the best protection and longevity. To ensure your treatment is beautiful & long lasting, use Cezanne aftercare with keratin extending ingredients only.
If another brand is used, avoid products that contain sulfates, sodium, baking soda, vinegar, parabens, and phthalates. Contact the manufacturer of the other brand for information on their products.
Can a prescription shampoo be used with a Cezanne treatment?
Yes, alternate every other shampoo between the prescription shampoo and Cezanne shampoo. The longevity of treatment may be lessened.
